Anchorman 2 had its place: How Ron Burgundy ruined the news and made it into what it is today. Wasn't as funny as the first, but there was clearly an angle to take it. Ferrell and McKay said they wanted to talk about the news being ruined by people like Ron, and they wouldn't make a third one due to calling out the media on their bullshite for what they've become.

But this election has allowed for another sequel to Anchorman: Ron Burgundy runs for President. Maybe where he takes over the station after a a few years, gets drunk one night with the News Team, and then runs for office as a joke. And then it goes out of control and runs against the single worst candidate in history.

Seriously, has Trump said anything you couldn't picture coming out of Ron Burgundy's mouth? Sorry, but this year pretty much has been "Ron Burgundy runs for President". After the press' dealing with this bullshite and is the primary reason why Trump is the nominee after 3 billion dollars in ads, they need to be called out on their bullshite. This needs to happen and soon.

We didn't need 2 let alone 3. Should have just let the first one be the classic that it was.

I'm glad they resisted Tommy Boy 2.

I'm just firmly against making these comedy classics franchises. They never work.

Maybe 3 could just parody how each station is extremely biased..

And he could go back and forth between the stupidity that is now news..

Even espn and the such could be greatly mocked

I LOVE the original and watch it whenever I randomly come across it. I've never given Anchorman 2 a second look even though I can stream it whenever I want. Are there other funny stories to tell about Network News? I know people that work at CNN, so I can tell you there are. But Ron Burgundy isn't the person to tell those stories because they'd feel pressure to do so many of the same things like the ridiculous fight scene.

it could be epic if they(writers) went all in on mocking the news channels.

but because the Dems have their hands on Hollywood I doubt something like this can ever gets done.
